//The line

Lilia is chef Missy Robbins' celebrated Italian restaurant in Williamsburg, known for handmade pasta and wood-fired cooking; it draws a following that makes both reservations and walk-in tables hard to come by, according to Yelp reviews and Resy's own guide to the restaurant.

Reported walk-in waits have ranged widely, from roughly 30 minutes to as long as three hours according to Resy, with Friday through Sunday bringing the most walk-in traffic. The restaurant reserves bar seats and some outdoor piazza/patio spots specifically for walk-ins, and arriving right at opening is the guidance reviewers give for the best shot at getting seated.
